Once the c-section is done and a woman has been released from medical or midwifery care then there are little to no suggestions made to help with the recovery process.
During the cesarean delivery, a horizontal incision is made to the lower segment of the uterus which can cause a significant amount of scar tissue and start the front of the uterus adhering to the back of the bladder. This type of scar tissue can cause a restriction of movement and ultimately lessen blood flow to the entire pelvic area. This can cause secondary fertility challenges.
Our c-section recovery program can help you start to rehabilitate 6 weeks after your surgery. You must have your physician’s clearance and no wound gaping, active infection, or significant pain at the incision site.
Mercier Therapy for C-section recovery is 6 sessions of focused pelvic organ work and scar massage.
These sessions are 60 minutes in length and are scheduled weekly for 6 weeks. Price per session is $140.
